Brandon's the best! I had a sports injury that just wasn't getting better and was stopping me from being as active as I like to be. They got me in quickly and saw me around my work schedule-- diagnosis (I was wrong about what muscle I actually strained, so of course wasn't rehabbing it right on my own!) and a couple weeks of PT has made a huge difference. Highly recommend! read more

See all

In summer 2021, I had a bunch of surgery done and came here for my arms (saw Michelle, who has since moved to the Avondale clinic) and my thighs (saw Erik). Both Erik and Michelle were so kind, knowledgeable, and so pleasant to work with. I appreciated when they shared information, tips, tricks with me. The place is very clean and organized. I'm really glad I came here -- my recoveries were great because of them! read more

I highly suggest this place, they did a great job helping me handle nerve pain in my right arm that was really affecting my daily life. Kevin does a great job with the clinic and the staff is amazing, both friendly and knowledgeable. Kevin helped me address my arm pain, through education, strengthen and hands on modalities that completely rid of my pain and nerve symptoms. I now enjoy painless days and night with better sleep, thank you ATI, Kevin and staff. read more

I had some pretty hefty surgery on my hip 05.04.12 that required a substantial amount of Physical Therapy. I'll be honest, I can't exactly say that I was thrilled by the amount of time I needed, but it sure beat the option of limping around for the rest of my life. I had what is called femoroacetabular impingement. Simply put, a big bone spur on the ball joint was cutting into muscle, torn the labrum surrounding, I had a torn ligament and was cutting off circulation of the entire leg. Yes, it was extremely painful to walk, let alone just move my leg. The first step is an evaluation to examine my range of motion, pain levels, future instruction of what to expect and basically tell it like it is. There once was a time that I thought I had a high tolerance for pain. No longer is that true. On my first visit, I hobbled in with crutches post surgery and a leg brace wincing with pain from every step taken and movement with my leg. Over the next 6 months and lots of rehabbing at ATI, I was noticing a substantial amount of improvement and gaining flexibility back. They did a great job and the staff was wonderful. read more

I've been a patient at ATI Wicker Park for the last 7 months and I've been very happy with every aspect of my care. In a nutshell: I was seriously injured at work and did not have a great long term prognosis for recovery. I visited several physical therapy and rehab clinics and felt like was being treated as just another patient. From the moment I walked into ATI Wicker Park, I knew they were different. The staff, from the front desk to the therapists, have all taken a great interest in my health and care. The supportive / positive attitude that fills the air at the clinic is infectious. The staff are exactly what I've needed to keep going with a physically and emotionally draining injury. In regards to the negative reviews about price: healthcare is expensive, and PT is a business. Quality care from properly educated therapists costs money... money that's well spent instead of living with a nagging injury or potentially lifelong condition. Special shout out to Maddie, the therapy technician. She's an amazing bright light of energy, and is truly an asset to their team. read more

I went to an initial appointment for PT at this location after breaking a bone. During my intake, I felt like the therapist was trying to sell me a used car rather than treat me for my range of motion. He told me that I would need more PT than I was told by my orthopedist. They then quickly scheduled 15 appointments with me, without confirming my availability. Finally after my appointment, they seemed reluctant to give me exercises to do at home to continue my recovery. All of this came off feeling like a sales tactic rather than therapy/care. On top of that, the therapists seemed more concerned with heating and eating their lunches than providing direction for my visit. All in all, it was the most expensive ice pack and 10 minutes on a stationary bike I have had and will be looking elsewhere for additional care. UPDATE: On top of all of that, I paid my bill on time but still kept receiving bills from them saying I owed money. I called, waited on hold and eventually was told that they made a mistake, my name had been spelled wrong, but it was taken care of. Now 3 months later, I get a letter from a collections agency, saying I owe the same amount. So not only did ATI do nothing to help my ankle, they actually hurt my credit score with their incompetence. So, beware. read more

This place had the best physical therapy I have been to. I had a series of knee injuries 15 years ago that I never fully recovered from. My arthritis started acting up really bad about 6 months ago and my rheumatologist recommended I try physical therapy again. I chose this ATI because it was close to where I lived. I was set up with Ashley and Coleen as my two physical therapists. I can say that they were both excellent. They were very friendly and skilled in their craft. I went for about 3 months and feel much better. They were very good with diagnosing what was likely causing my issues and worked with me to increase my strength in those areas. When I left, they made sure I had an exercise plan and was able to continue my strengthening. The other therapists were also very friendly and entertaining. The setup of the office is nice and their equipment was good. Compared to the physical therapy I had after my initial surgeries, this location was leaps and bounds better. I would recommend to anyone. read more

I cannot begin to say how thankful I am for ATI WICKER PARK the therapists and the staff! The happiest and most welcoming peeps! I feel so much better and STRONGER. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Adam you are a great therapist MY #1. read more

I suffered an Achilles Rupture and was recommended to clinical director Dr. Kevin Elavia. I was so thankful to use him as my physical therapist. His knowledge behind sport's injuries was outstanding. The ATI staff at Wicker Park was very hospitable the moment I came in. They showed the same care and friendliness throughout my whole 6-month recovery path. The staff creates a warm atmosphere in which they will go above and beyond to help you get to your physical, and mental, greatest shape. The staff also offers ideal flexibility that will suit every need you have. Till this day when anyone is in need of physical therapy, I don't just recommend this ATI clinic, but tell future therapy patients that it's a must you utilize this staff. They are by far the best clinic. read more

I tore my ACL at the end of April and attended ATI almost immediately after for the rest of the year. The staff were exceptional. Knowledgeable, fun, they got my work done but made it pleasant (as much as possible for a bad injury). They were EXTREMELY accommodating to my erratic schedule and made sure that regardless I got my work in. Special shoutout to Jackie! BOOMER SOONER! But all the staff in general were great. read more

Services are horrible, but the location is convenient. I am actually thinking about when I feel better suing this place.

Staff was great but they practice very very poor billing practices. My insurance benefits paid them within three days of my visits, however, when my coverage ran out, they decided to not notify me and let me rack up over $1700 in services before I got my bill FOUR MONTHS LATER! When I called they said it isn't their policy to notify me when it starts to be declined by insurance. Very poor practice, could you imagine an elderly person going 3 days a week for months only to find out months later that coverage had ended $4000 ago? When I called about it they gave me a bunch of lies and I verified they were lies by talking to my insurance. read more

When my physician recommended physical therapy, ATI was my chosen provider due to its proximity to my home. I should have known from the moment I walked in to the facility what I was about to get myself into. There was no receptionist, and the gentleman that (finally) helped me had no idea where to find half of the paperwork was that I needed to complete-- an utter, unorganized mess. I had a very brief evaluation with a therapist, and immediately hit the ground running with a handful of exercises while my therapist sat in the back of the clinic. This was my first time ever doing PT, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Visit after visit, I came in eager to get myself back to 100%. I was given 3 or 4 exercises to do at a time and under no supervision of my therapist. I continually had to walk to the back of the clinic to let him know I was done so I could get my next assignment. I was never encouraged to do any exercises at home, and was always booked at the same time as 1, if not 2 other patients. After attending for 4 weeks, twice a week, I started to question whether this was how PT should be. I went to an orthopedic surgeon who recommended a different PT company in the area. The following day, I made an appointment with NovaCare on Division and was thrilled with the attention I was given. Each therapy session provided 30 minutes of hands-on treatment paired with 30 minutes of exercises--all with one-on-one attention. After just a few weeks here, I'm nearly back to 100%. I only wish that I hadn't wasted 4 weeks of my time with ATI. If you're looking for quality care, check out NovaCare. I can't say enough great things about Omer and his staff. Clean, friendly, great equipment, and one-on-one attention that everyone deserves. read more

I went to ATI for some minor issues with my arms. The portion of the services involving exercises, staff support, etc. is good. They were all very nice. Unfortunately, upon being referred by my physician, they began scheduling me at least twice a week. I agreed to this commitment. After my first appointment, I asked if I owed them any money, and they responded, "nope!" and sent me on my way. It continued this way for a month. Then I received a very, very large bill from ATI. This bill is very large, even with my insurance. When I called the manager, she was cordial, but just replied that she was "sorry" and that it is usually within their standard practices to make patients aware of the financial aspects of the services. She said she didn't know how I "slipped through the cracks." I wrote a letter to corporate offices, requesting financial assistance. I would not have engaged in services if I had been made aware of the cost. They cut my bill in half. For almost a year now I have been making monthly payments. It will take a very long time to pay this off. So, my advice: If you are thinking of going here, I implore you to check, double check, triple check (with the manager!) of what your costs will look like. read more

I saw Michelle for OT after my elbow surgery and she was awesome. I actually felt well enough and graduated OT and then saw Mike for PT. Which I had put off for years due to my elbow pain. All of the staff are so supportive and really want you to do well and heal . I feel like I get better with each visit. read more

This place has helped me so much with my knee after my meniscus surgery about 5 weeks ago. They're very professional and kind, but today I witnessed an unfortunate incident that I wish had gone very differently. Towards the end of my session, an old woman with a limp walked in begging to use the bathroom. My therapist insisted that bathrooms were only for customers, even after I objected. She walked out basically in tears and humiliated. I know that businesses aren't obligated to let people use their bathrooms, but a basic gesture of compassion would have been in order for this old lady. Very, very sad indeed. read more

I went their starting in January of 2012 for a several month rehab after getting shoulder surgery. I have nothing but positive things to say about the place. My main physical therapist, Shane was very helpful and friendly in treating me for my rehab. Shane knew everything about the injury and the surgery itself (generally more than the doctors themselves), and was more than happy to answer any health questions in general. The entire staff (Bari, Christine, Margie, and JT) were also very helpful and friendly. It is now 3 months later (April/2012) and I am done with my rehab and my shoulder is basically back near 100%. Another thing to note, is that after going their for my first few visits, I found out that my crappy insurance, didn't have ATI in their network. ATI decided to treat me at my insurance companies in network rate with my insurance company, which saved me potentially several thousand dollars. Not many companies in the Healthcare industry would do something like that nowadays. I will definitely recommend this location to people in the future. Oh and they also did a good job with the rehab itself. :-) read more

I am just finishing my second time at ATI in Wicker Park and planning on the third following my upcoming knee surgery. You expect knowledgeable staff, but this place goes way beyond that and treats the whole person. Barry is an effective manager and keeps everyone on a positive note. Ashley, my therapist this time around has been extremely helpful, and is a delight to work with. A very different experience than my husband had at Accelerated last year. I cannot recommend this place too highly. As the caption for five stars says "Wooohooo! As good as it gets!" read more

I first walked into ATI for an assessment with Kevin E. about 8 weeks ago. I had hurt my back after a workout session and was pretty much bedridden. I could hardly walk when I came to see him. I began seeing Kevin and his team about 3 times / week. I truly thought I would not be able to run or jump ever again. But they are absolutely miracle workers!!! I couldn't be happier with the care I received. From my first day to my last, everyone was so kind and caring and most importantly I felt all my concerns and questions were answered. I felt heard. On my last day, I was given a at home exercise program to continue to strengthen and stretch my muscles. I felt totally equipped to be discharged so to speak. I recall having a conversation with Kevin about feeling unprepared to leave a few weeks ago and he assured me I would continue till I felt good and strong enough to do this on my own. Which is exactly what happened. I can't thank the ATI team enough. I am so very grateful for all that they've done to help me increase my quality of life again!! read more

I had a truly excellent physical therapy experience here. I came twice a week for 6 weeks to resolve an exercise-induced achilles injury. Kevin and the rest of the team are knowledgeable, focused on each individual's needs, and just all around warm and kind-hearted people. There is a palpable sense of community and camaraderie amongst the staff and clients - this was an invaluable factor to the experience. I genuinely looked forward to my physical therapy sessions, despite the challenging and sometimes painful nature of any physical rehabilitation process. I have been back to my typical exercise patterns for over a week now, and am endlessly thankful for the stellar professionalism and high quality of care that I experienced. I recommend this staff and Kevin in particular for short-term care like I needed, but even moreso if you're looking at months of PT. They will make the grind manageable and positive. Incredible team! read more

After having two back surgeries for Sciatica back pain, I went to ATI for physical therapy three times a week for one month. Adam was my primary therapist. Sony, Ashley, and Coleen worked with me also. They were professional, skilled, patient, caring and funny and worked together as a team. They made me feel like family. Chuck picked me up and took me back home when the weather was bad and he kept me laughing. It was a pleasure being greeted each visit by Margi. I would highly recommend ATI Physical Therapy at 1300 N Ashland Ave Chicago, IL 60622 read more

I went to ATI for a "tennis elbow" injury a couple months ago. To be honest, I went there because its only a few minutes walking distance from where I live. However, I was surprised to find that the staff at ATI was not only professional and knowledgable, but also quite entertaining at 8am in the morning! Bari, Kathleen, Christine, Margi and Shane are awesome and got me back into throwing up weights in no time! Ive worked with all of the therapists and always received consistent treatment during my time there. I think this speaks greatly to the quality of the PTs there. The next time I get hurt, Im going back to ATI! read more

I could not have been happier with my experience with ATI! I was having pretty severe shoulder pain for about a month when a friend from another ATI facility recommended me to Kevin Elavia. I went in for one of their complimentary injury screenings in which I was informed that I had a rotator cuff injury and was recommended to come in for therapy about 2xs/week for several weeks. Before they even knew my insurance situation, they were super accommodating and gave me several flexible options for how we could go about treatment depending on how much coverage I had. I ended up being able to go for the recommended amount and I made amazing progress through my time there. The entire staff was so awesome; everyone was incredibly welcoming and positive that it made my time there very enjoyable. I really can't say enough good things about Kevin. After a couple sessions he began dry needling therapy on top of the regular physical therapy which made a huge difference for my pain. I also have really bad knee problems which was completely unrelated to the reason I was going there, but in my last sessions Kevin spent extra time with me and gave me extensive exercises to help with that issue as well. It's been a few weeks since I was discharged and my shoulder is pretty much healed and pain-free. This clinic is awesome and I highly recommend! read more
